The Heart Cells Foundation is celebrating over two decades of research into using stem cells to treat patients suffering from heart failure to improve their lives.

This began with one man who was saved by this procedure. ❤️

Green tea could do more than boost your energy 🍵

We enjoyed reading about it's benefits in @RealSimple. Rich in antioxidants like EGCG, studies suggest it may help reduce inflammation, support healthy blood vessels, and improve cholesterol balance.

Small daily habits can make a big difference for your heart. To read the full article click here: https://t.co/hg1CSnsWDf

Morning workouts might be your heart’s best friend 🫀✨

New research from The University of Ediburgh suggests exercising earlier in the day, especially between 8-11am, can lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure. But timing isn’t one-size-fits-all: aligning workouts with your body clock (circadian rhythm) is key.

Bottom line? Move when it works for you - but if you can, start your day with it. Read full story here: https://t.co/iiKvIiTgAF

Ever since we began over 20 years, events have been in our DNA! ♥️

Premier movie screenings, celebrity Q&A's, and not to mention our annual golf tournament at @CoombeHillGolfClub. Hear from our global ambassador, Marion Rosenberg, OBE.

Do you have an idea to run one of your own? Send us a message, we'd love to discuss and amplify!

Heart health starts on your plate 💚

The small, everyday choices add up—think nutrient-packed foods that actively support your heart. From omega-3s in fish to antioxidants in berries and healthy fats in avocados, it’s all about fuelling your body the right way.
Simple swaps. Long-term impact.

Which of these are already part of your routine? 👀

Stem cell therapy for heart failure pioneered in the UK could save up to a million patients from suffering an early death! 🩺

As reported recently in the @SundayExpress, a new economic analysis by the @YorkHealthEconomicsConsortium confirms that intracoronary bone marrow-derived stem cell therapy provides exceptional value for money, giving patients longer, healthier lives at a cost well below the standard @NHS threshold.

Everything is in place to start phase three of the trial which would all the therapy to be on the NHS - we just need the funds. Consider donating here: https://t.co/95LLf1rkqS

#StemCells are undifferentiated "master cells" capable of dividing and differentiating into specialised cell types (e.g., muscle, nerve, or blood cells) and regenerating themselves.

Our research has found that stem cells can be used to repair unhealthy hearts! 💪
